Swedish materials company Alleima AB said on Thursday it extended its supply partnership with Airbus, marking the longest commitment period in their history at more than 70 years.
The expanded agreement adds the delivery of advanced seamless titanium tube solutions, complementing Alleima’s existing supply of stainless steel tubes for Airbus programs. The materials are used in aircraft hydraulic, oxygen and fuel systems, the company said.
Alleima operates manufacturing facilities for aerospace-grade tubes in the United States, Germany and China, with its primary melting and semi-finished products plant based in Sandviken, Sweden. The company recorded revenue of approximately 19 billion Swedish kronor in 2025 and employed around 6,800 people across 80 countries.
Carl von Schantz, president of Alleima’s Tube division, said the expanded partnership "strengthens the long-standing relationship between Alleima and Airbus" and reinforces confidence in Alleima as a critical materials supplier. Phil Cherrie, president of the Specialized business unit, highlighted the need for advanced materials from reliable partners capable of scaling production and maintaining consistent quality over time.
Alleima’s shares, listed on NASDAQ Stockholm under the ticker ALLEI, were trading at 119.30 Swedish kronor on Thursday, up 2.00 kronor, or 1.71%, following the announcement.
